I have a dropdown selector on a dashboard that requeries the Results section by way of a filter. The field is REGION. Values are North, South, East, West. However, I want the default value to be "ALL REGIONS". I want the user to have the ability to see the grand total of all regions. I don't know how to handle that at the filter level. Can this be done? How?

If the code posted above is actual code then you have an issue with the 2 ignore statements.

I indicated that it was rough code because I did not know your section & limit object names.

Use the Console Window to show you the error or line with an error.

Are you using the Script Editor Object Tree to help you create your script?

Navigate to the Object you are interested in working with via Script. The editor provides you the Methods and Properties associated with that Object.If you have a question how that Property or Method behaves or is used click the HELP in the lower left corner of the Script Editor. It will take you to information on that Object, Collection, Method or Property and often times show you examples.

fix the Ignore

and fix the CustomValues...

if you are still having an issue after you try navigating the editor Object Tree to the appropriate Objects/Methods/Properties and reviewing the HELP then please post what you have and the related error.

IRFramework does a good job of abstracting some of this so you don't have to deal with the inconsistent accessor methods for IR dashboard objects. For example, there is a GetValue() method for CheckBox, RadioButton, TextLabel, TextBox, DropDown, and ListBox objects that returns an array containing the value(s) in the control. For a dropdown, you would call it like this:

This works because the dropdown can have only one item selected. It returns the value of element 0 of the array into the sValue variable. Similarly, you could use the selected items in a ListBox like this:
